Blue Soul - Sinister Ana / The Menacing (Roam Recordings)

A cornerstone of the Roam Recordings revival, Scott Boutin (aka Blue Soul)
is an extremely talented and versatile producer. He has been spotted
issuing singles for the likes of Whiskey Pickle, Thoughtless, and 3AM
Devices as well as more experimental music under the
moniker Archetypewriter. In his previous on Roam, "Summer Trip," Scott
showed us his smoother '80s infused house sound. This new EP could not
be more different, both tracks are mid-tempo, moody acid techno with a
lot of attitude. The name of the first cut, "Sinister Ana," says
it all; this track meticulously seeps in with an edgy acid bass line,
gothic synths, and Arp synths that take mental prisoners through
calculated transmutations. "The Menacing" is also aptly named,
beckoning in all its glory with twisted horns and relentless acid notes
while at the same time proving damn funky. In fact, both of these tunes
maintain an 'evil' edge with grooves sure to creep into the body. This
is not an EP for the fainthearted, but instead for those more
adventurous DJs and dance floors ... dig in.
